  • Registered Users Posts: 2,556 ✭✭✭Slunk


    Tried a random word nobody else would have.Not. random enough for some sites though


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,177 ✭✭✭MickySticks


    I really hate when people don't have the first letter in their user name as a capital, I immediately lose respect for them. Just sayin.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,556 ✭✭✭Nolanger


    Surname then firstname but it looks like my penis got cut off.


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,084 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Had just finished Red Dead Redemption so just used something from that.

    Wanted ''Marston'' but some bastard out there took it already.

    Capital letters are for people who need to overcompensate for something.

    Was listening to crystal castles and looking at my pet mouse at the time :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,409 ✭✭✭Captain_Generic

    There was a character off the television that was the complete opposite to me - so school mates somehow though it would be funny to call me after his last name!
    (I didn't get it myself at the time!)
    Since them, I've been using the name "Biggins" as an ironic pun. "Biggins" sounds harmless and evokes images of a bungling fool - sometimes an image I wish to reflect while I go about doing work more effectively and quietly.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,059 ✭✭✭Sindri


    I robbed it off a dying homeless person I ran over years ago sure. With his dying breathe he asked me to carry on his persona and legacy.

    So I stripped him nude, put on his clothes, and became Sindri the magic homeless fairy.

    I also inherited his wandering testicle syndrome.

    I like Wallace & Gromit and also evil penguins. Seemed like a logical choice.

    I'm an 8th century Frankish monk and, having finished my biography on Charlemagne, I had a bit of time on my hands so decided to sign up here and share my wisdom with the masses.
